Ease of use for sharing documents and information amongst the team. There was very little difficult getting adjusted to the interface and features, and it made sharing a lot easier amongst the team. I think it is also a bit better than some other file sharing/storing services that are out there Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about GitBook? No complaints. I found the product to be easy. I am used to sharing documents via a shared network drive.. So at first the change the Gitbook was a bit offputting. But aside from that, I dont have any main complaints that I would give a "heads up" to someone about or even a critique about the application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering GitBook: I think you should give it a shot. It is easy to use, and very helpful for getting archiving information for new and previous employees to have access to. Of course it will take some time to get ued to using, but once you are actually familiar with it, it becomes very handy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is GitBook solving and how is that benefiting you? Problems I solved were mainly for myself, or directing colleagues to being able to find the correct document needed for information. It much easier because the access set up is a lot more convenient than using some other methods for sharing such as a shared drive or etc. Where I feel you have to do a lot of on the fly tampering for permissions at times, because shared drives or online drives don't always recognize a role such as "user", "admin" so there can be issues where someone is restricted from access even though they are within a role to have it. I did not encounter this with Gitbook Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Show More Validated ReviewerIncentivizedSource: G2 invite ## Questions about GitBook?
